About the Role: 

We are seeking a talented and motivated best-in-class Principal Software Engineer. This role presents an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within a rapidly growing team, with abundant prospects for career advancement.

As a Principal Software Engineer with Sezzle, you will work with highly-motivated teams to tackle interesting and challenging problems across multiple areas of the organization. Your experience and guidance will help other members of the team level-up their own skills as well. You will spend your time working with AI/ML tooling to identify creative uses to fill existing and emerging gaps in the applications.

In this backend focused role, you will work closely with stakeholders from Product, Support and the business. You’ll also partner with other engineering teams to provide high-quality, scalable, and innovative solutions to internal and customer problems. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include designing, developing, and delivering new features, as well as unblocking and mentoring your teammates. Your work will generally focus on the lower level features and optimizations.

This role has both an internal and external focus, your contributions will make a meaningful difference in the day-to-day lives of your peers at Sezzle, enhancing their ability to support our business and customers, and you will have opportunities to take any feedback and iterate.

What You'll Do:

• Architect, design, and build scalable backend services and APIs primarily in Golang, leveraging AWS, RDS (MySQL/Postgres), and modern distributed patterns.
• Lead Sezzle’s AI enablement efforts, identifying opportunities to apply AI and automation to enhance developer productivity, internal tooling, and customer experiences.
• Partner with teams across the organization to integrate modern AI capabilities - Primarily around tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and enhancing team productivity.
• Drive consistency and scalability across a distributed microservices architecture while maintaining performance and reliability.
• Establish and evolve engineering best practices for observability, security, and CI/CD across teams.
• Mentor engineers and champion a culture of learning, innovation, and operational excellence.
• Collaborate cross-functionally to translate business goals into technical roadmaps and deliver results that matter.

What We Look For:

• 12+ years of professional software engineering experience, including significant backend experience.
• Deployed significant changes to a production application in the past 30 days.
• Strong proficiency in Golang, with experience building and maintaining RESTful APIs.
• Expertise with SQL-based RDBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and experience optimizing schema and queries for performance at scale.
• Solid understanding of distributed systems design patterns (e.g., transactional outbox, event-driven architecture, queues).
• Demonstrated ability to bring new ideas forward, influence decisions, and lead complex technical initiatives.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Proficiency in observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic).
• Experience with AWS cloud infrastructure, mainly AWS Aurora RDS, both MySQL and Postgres.
• Experience in fintech, payments, BNPL, or consumer lending - familiarity with financial compliance, credit decisioning, or transaction processing systems.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and containerized microservices (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Working knowledge of TypeScript, React, or React Native.
• Familiarity with AI/ML tooling (e.g., OpenAI API, LangChain, Hugging Face, or custom LLM integrations).
• Track record of shipping commercial APIs and data-driven applications in high-growth environments.
• Proven leadership in guiding technical direction, improving system reliability, and scaling engineering organizations.

About You: 

• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.

About the Role: 

We are seeking a talented and motivated AI Engineer II who is best in class, with a high IQ and a high EQ. This role presents an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within a rapidly growing team, with strong prospects for continued growth and increased ownership.

As an AI Engineer II on the Applied AI team, you will take on end-to-end ownership of complex platforms and systems that power Sezzle's AI-driven capabilities. Your work will span initiatives such as building AI-powered platforms from scratch, developing intelligent automation and orchestration systems, and embedding proprietary AI solutions directly into customer-facing products, internal tools, and operational workflows.

You will operate in highly ambiguous problem spaces, working closely with product, engineering, and operations teams to identify opportunities where AI can drive meaningful impact — whether that's enhancing the customer experience, improving decision-making, or automating complex workflows. This role is ideal for engineers ready to move beyond scoped execution and into leading solutions: shaping architecture, driving implementation, and ensuring that what is built is reliable, scalable, and genuinely useful for both external users and internal teams.

What You'll Do:

• Lead the design, development, and ownership of AI-powered internal platforms and systems, including initiatives built from the ground up.
• Own end-to-end delivery of complex projects, from problem discovery and system design through production rollout and iteration.
• Design and implement AI-driven features, intelligent automation, and orchestration systems that enhance customer experiences and compound productivity across teams.
• Embed AI capabilities into customer-facing products, internal tools, and operational workflows, ensuring solutions integrate naturally and deliver measurable value.

About the Role

We're looking for an ML Engineer with 5+ years of production experience to strengthen our ML team. We operate as an internal service and centre of excellence for 10+ product teams at Fundraise Up. This means you won't be tied to a single feature: one day you might be optimising donation amounts and upsell offers, and the next you could be building a smart assistant for the admin panel or working on transaction classification.

We actively use not only classical ML, but also RL, and we're expanding our LLM-based solutions — prompt engineering and pipeline design with LLM APIs (OpenAI and equivalents). That's why we're looking for someone with a broad mindset who isn't afraid to experiment and can choose the most effective approach for each task.

The project's main audience and business team are based in the US. Although the product development team is Russian-speaking, you may occasionally need to write in English.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and deploy ML solutions across different business areas using tabular data (uplift models, recommender systems). We are also actively developing projects that will involve e-commerce mechanics.
• Select the most appropriate ML/LLM approaches or propose alternative solutions.
• Build end-to-end ML solutions: data preparation, training, API development, and monitoring.
• Design prompts and LLM API-based pipelines for specific product tasks: classification, content generation, and response quality evaluation.

Requirements

• 5+ years of ML/DS experience solving real product problems
• Strong expertise in ML and mathematical statistics: solid knowledge of classical algorithms (especially gradient boosting); NLP knowledge is a plus
• Metrics-driven mindset: ability to connect ML metrics (ROC-AUC, F1, RMSE) with business metrics (CR, LTV)
• Strong engineering culture: confident in Python with a product-oriented approach to development; we value clean code, knowledge of design patterns, and solid engineering practices
• Data skills: advanced SQL; ability to independently and efficiently build complex datasets in ClickHouse and work with MongoDB
• MLOps understanding: hands-on experience with experiment tracking tools and understanding of production workflows (Docker, Git, CI/CD)
• Autonomy: ability to break down problems, choose the right tech stack (or justify a non-ML solution), and deliver to production

Our Tech Stack

Core: Python (uv, ruff), FastAPI, Pydantic, Docker

Models: CatBoost, Uplift Modeling (CausalML), OpenAI (RAG, Prompt-Engineering)

Data: ClickHouse, MongoDB, pandas, Polars, Redis

It’s a dynamic, collaborative environment where smart, curious engineers support one another, share knowledge, and strive for excellence. We encourage open dialogue and host bi-weekly engineering meetups to explore technical topics and showcase team insights.

About the Role

We're looking for an ML Engineer with 5+ years of production experience to own a high-impact client intelligence initiative. Following a successful proof-of-concept with an external consultant, we are bringing this project fully in-house. The ultimate goal is to generate a comprehensive, enriched list of all potential clients globally — understanding their product requirements, industry verticals, and overall revenue potential — and deploy a scoring model that feeds directly into our sales pipeline.

This is an end-to-end ownership role. You will build from the ground up: data collection, enrichment, modeling, and production deployment. The project is co-managed by company executives and has a high strategic value.

What You’ll Do

• Build a market intelligence data-base via collecting different types of data (scraping, enrichment), fixing data pipeline and creating an ML model for scoring and analysis of the raw data.
• Design and operate scrapers to extract key signals from nonprofit websites, including products used, payment tools, and industry vertical indicators.
• Develop critical filters such as an "Is this website for fundraising?" binary classifier, alongside other features that distinguish high-potential prospects.
• Source and integrate financial data from international nonprofit registries, as well as third-party signals from SimilarWeb and Facebook.
• Store and structure the enriched dataset in our internal database, making it accessible and useful across the broader team for research and analysis.
• Work closely with the sales team to understand their qualification criteria. Analyze disqualified accounts in Salesforce to identify common exclusion patterns and refine scoring accordingly.
• Deploy the scoring model and own the process of integrating outputs into Salesforce in a clean, maintainable way.
• Build a scraper to monitor existing clients' websites, tracking whether Fundraise Up tools are correctly implemented across their properties.

Challenges You'll Navigate

• At the scale of ~1 million domains, expect domain duplicates, inconsistent data, and significant noise. You'll need to develop robust, cost-efficient filtering pipelines.
• A single model won't cover everything — you'll likely build several targeted sub-models tailored to specific verticals and geographies as the project matures.
• All of this needs to be accomplished without incurring high infrastructure or data costs. Pragmatic, scrappy solutions are valued here.

Requirements

• 5+ years of ML/DS experience solving real product problems
• Strong expertise in ML and mathematical statistics: solid knowledge of classical algorithms (especially gradient boosting) and understanding of modern NLP/LLM approaches
• Proven experience with large-scale web scraping and data pipeline construction
• Metrics-driven mindset: ability to connect ML metrics (ROC-AUC, F1, RMSE) with business metrics (conversion rate, LTV)
• Strong engineering culture: confident in Python with a product-oriented approach; we value clean code, knowledge of design patterns, and solid engineering practices
• Advanced SQL; ability to independently build complex datasets in ClickHouse and work with MongoDB
• MLOps understanding: hands-on experience with experiment tracking and production workflows (Docker, Git, CI/CD)
